Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day!

I really didn't think I would like this...

I had a very sick little girl home with me yesterday and I knew I needed to make her some soup. I made turkey soup for us for dinner. I needed bread to go with it. I asked around for some bread recipes and this kept coming up. You really can make Artisan Bread in 5 minutes a Day!!!

You have to get this book!!!

If you hunt around on the internet you can come up with a basic recipe but the real deal is in this book.

The idea is you make a big ball of dough in 5 minutes (for real). Then refrigerate it. You pull off dough balls as you need them for bread. This dough lasts for 2 weeks in your fridge. Can you just believe this!

The bread looks delicious. I'm pissed every time I have to spend $4 on my favorite loaf. I thought about trying the BYOB. I like that she said the bread police wouldn't come after me if I missed a time or two!I'm glad your daughter is doing much better. It's so scary to see them that sick. Now dont you get it!

We LOVE that book! Usually have the dough in the fridge at any given time. Your bread turned out so beautifully... nice crunch to the crust is what it looks like. Hope your daughter is feeling better... seems everyone is sick lately.

I came from Kalofagas. With both of your very positive feedback, I am probably going to get it. Currently I am using the book Dough by Richard Reinhart which his way of working the dough it already 3 mins less than convention kneading. Nice to find your blog.
